Yet another issue I have encountered with this latest crap-fest software. I ask my Apple TV 4K 2022 (running the latest 16.2 software) what the weather is and it says I don't seem to be able to get your location, or I don't know where you are. If I restart it it will work for a few minutes and answer correctly and then stops. Rinse and repeat.

Any ideas please?

Edit: it's now doing the usual on it, wait a moment, then comes up with sorry, there's no weather info

Out of curiosity, what internet service do you have? I didn’t even think about asking Siri for the weather and just tried it - that’s a cool feature I never thought about using. Right now I’m using cable internet and it correctly identified where I am. However, 2 months ago I was off-grid and using Starlink for internet. I was using a 7 day free trial for YouTube’s live TV and it wouldn’t give me a network channel because it couldn’t identify my location. Are you running into something like that?
 
I don't think it's anything like that. I use virgin media in the UK. It's seemingly random I've noticed. Originally I thought it would only work for the first few minutes and then stop working permanently until it was restarted. However that is not the case. At the moment it is working more often than it doesn't.
